I know I know the title of this blog could mean a million and one things... It could mean that I really want to talk about those cute black sheep that God put on this big old earth for a reason. I could just be a title to make you think huh?? It could mean that I want to talk a bit about being a black sheep, how one feels and is treated as one.... You know this blog could be nothing about black sheep.. However I must say that yes it does have something to do with the way we are treated and the way we treat others at times and make them feel like they are the black sheep..
First I would like to ask you a question.. Does God treat any of His children like they are black sheep?? Does God treat all of His children equal no matter how bad they might have messed up?? Does God want the best for His children no matter what?? Does God love each of His children unconditionally?? Yes He does... So why do we as humans think that we have the right to be mean, hateful and put down others for not doing things the exact way we think they should do things or living the exact way we think they should?? Hello none of us are perfect so why do we think we have the right to judge and put down other's???
I know that there will be some people who are going to read this post and be mad, but I am sorry I am sick and tired of being the one everyone puts down and tries to hurt and say how bad I am... I feel like part of the problem is that I have always been one to try to make people happy and now I have decided that it is time to be ME to find out who I am.. And I am not a puppet on a string for people anymore, however I do not need you assuming things and listening to everything that people say....
I know that I may not always make the right choices, but I think maybe if you stopped and took a look at your own lives you will see that you are not perfect and have not always made the right decisions. Do I run to you when you make choices that I don't agree with and put you down or tell everyone what a mess up you are?? No because I know that God made each of us unique and we all have to make choices and live with the consequences.. We don't need someone poking their noses in and trying to run our lives..
I ask all of you that are treated like the black sheep to stop and start taking up for yourself. You are not a bad person and you have your own life to live just as those who want to stand around talking about you. For those who treat people like they are the black sheep.. Sit back and look at your own life and see if you see perfection... I am sure you will see cracks in your glass.. However if you don't and are without sin then you may throw the first stone... It is time for people to mind their own business and to stop trying to hurt others...
Pray before you speak..
God Bless,
Mars
